[Mdabs] April Programming at the Maryland State Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped

[LaShawn Myles -LBPH-]

 Hello All,
It was a pleasure meeting some of you at the MDPOBC breakfast and auction
on March 17th. For those I did not get the pleasure of meeting, I want to
introduce myself.  I am the youth librarian at the Maryland State Library
for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. It is my hope that I will get to
meet many of you in the near future.  If you have any questions, please
reach out. Additionally, I want to share all the library happenings with
you. If you've not done so, please visit our website for upcoming event
information. Below I have posted a few upcoming events in the month of
April.
